I actually went in Ableton and recorded a 1/4T metronome over a 1/4 note midi beat and the results didn't seem to make anymore sense then the math so I think the best way to think of triplets is there is a cool groove you can play and sometimes when you try to figure out why the groove is so cool, well it turns out your utilizing a triplet beat in some way so your taking a whole beat and dividing it into a portion which has no true mathematical definition.
75 times 4 you get 3 so I'm not sure if the term triplet comes from the math or the notation but you can see the correlation to 3 in multiple ways. 75 of 3 seconds so the same measure would still be 3 seconds. Whereas a normal 1/4 note would take 3 seconds and divide it into 4 parts so your answer would be each 1/4 note is. I'm not sure about how the software handles floating points and division and significant digits but the idea is if you have a measure that is 4/4 time and for argument sake takes 3 seconds to play one whole beat then 1/4T would have a beat every 1 second.
